mixed feelings about this stay

helpful staffnoisy roomsmall room
The staff at the front desk seemed nice, especially perry. He smiled a lot.
my room did not have the balcony I expected when I booked so I was dissapointed. it was also REALLY noisy all night, mostly from people passing by so i didn't sleep Well. plus, the room felt pretty small and my wife and i had to live out of our suitcases because there was no dressers.
